crash, and cause the CPU loading 100%!


Does this happen with every torrent or just with one torrent ?

About 1/3 ~ 1/2 torrents.

I have tried BitTorrent/BitTornado/cTorrent/rTorrent/QtTorrent,
these torrent client won't download generally,
azureus is better and BitComet(for Windows) is the best for downloading!

I just useing Windows for downloading torrent... :)


I mean torrent files you open with ktorrent, not different bittorrent clients. What torrent file is causing this 100 % CPU load ?

Just a hunch, but did you enable the MDV firewall in the MCC?
It doesnt automatically open up the ports needed for torrent downloads.

You can check this in the Mandriva Controll Center (Configure my computer in System->Configuration) then the Security tab, open the Personal firewall page and make sure BiTTorrent is checked.

It might help.

Azureus doesnt need this setting because it can use uPnP (actually im not completely sure ktorrent doesnt, but that aside).

Do these torrents have lots of chunks ? (more then 2000)

Maybe, I'm not sure. I didn't notice the chunks.
When 100% CPU happend I kill the process id of ktorrent,
then restart ktorrent and the torrent file appear in the download window, but sometime still won't download or wait a long time
starting to download(several hours).

So KTorrent fully blocks ? If you minimize KT and then show it again, it doesn't redraw the window ?

Sometimes the tracker can be very slow, you should try to do a manual announce when this happens (right click on torrent to do this).

The Ttorrent window has no respone anymore.

I'll try that next time.
But azureus don't have the problem although it use more memory...

It seems happened in this situation:
If the torrent contain sereval files,
it pop up "Select Which Files You Want to Download" window,
when I uncheck one of the file then causing 100% CPU.

It looks like it gets stuck in an infinite loop, I haven't experienced anything like this.

Does this also happen when you just press OK and then try to uncheck something in the files tab ?

It's ok when just press OK, but still causing 100% CPU if I try to
uncheck one of files in the files tab.

Not everyone but almost happened when uncheck the second file.
By now I'm downloading 3 torrents, one of torrents that share ratio
is 3.38 :( , the other 2 torrents won't to connect any peers even I
tried to manual Announce several times in pass 3-4 hours.
